Bellingham: “It was a magnificent performance by the whole team”
“The Bernabéu? Oh my goodness. This victory is also for the fans,” said the English midfielder.
Jude Bellingham had a Clásico to remember. He set up the game's first goal with a majestic assist for Mbappé and then scored the decisive 2-1 goal that gave our team the victory. He summed up what happened in the match on Realmadrid TV: “It's a very important victory for us. We're very happy and it's a good day. We all put in a huge effort. That's why we deserve the three points”.
“In the first half, we were really decisive with the ball. Every time we had possession, it ended with a good shot or something positive. In the second half, it was more defensive work. Militão, Huijsen, Carreras and Carvajal when he came on were very good. But it was a magnificent performance from the whole team.”
The Bernabéu
“My goodness. This victory is also for the fans. Last year we played badly in the big games and today this victory was for everyone: players, staff, fans..."
The assist for the first goal
“They play very high up the pitch. We have Mbappé and it's easier up front. I turned and passed, and then he shot and scored”.
Second consecutive game scoring
"These are my favourite goals. A lot of people say it's luck, but for me it's how I understand the game. When the ball goes here or there, position changes everything and I'm always ready if it comes to me. Militão got his head to it and then I was there to score.”
